Cyclists, yes bikes fit in the Stinger!

Road bike... check




Cyclocross... check




29er... check... barely






I take my bikes to work sometimes, and sometimes I want to go to a restaurant after a ride and I don't want my bike sitting out on a rack. The 29er took some figuring out, but it fits, granted it's a medium and the bars are slammed so YMMV.

And yes, I know I need to wash my bikes.

Nice cant wait till the rains go away to get mine out.

Was hoping to get my bike out soon, but it's still #$@#!@! snowing in the in Northeast. Be careful with putting the seats down, there was a post where the leather became indented due to the seat belt receivers pressing against the seat (no matter how far you push them in).

Wow, the whole thing! Good to know.

Fitting my bike in was one of the reasons I bought the Stinger

 

[voon]

That's how I drove around my MTBs with my Skoda Octavia. But hauling in a heavy e-Bike, risking to smash some bits against the paint when unlucky had me add a hook to my Stinger. Now I can put that bike rack thing on the back

Nice; can you tell me what size road and cyclocross bike those are; can't tell from the pics but they look on the small side; all of my bikes are 56 road

Giant big frame; wheel must come off first; seat down or out. You could fit two of these in there, with a thick blanket between, pedal of top bike inside the frame of bottom bike.

How about some pictures of golf clubs back there?

 

[MerlintheMad]

Golf bags. Heh, I thought that was what the VW Golf was designed for. But the Stinger will handle several sets handily. Why, are you in doubt?

 

[jatleson]

I know they will fit - they fit in my 3 series. But can they lay across or does it have to be a certain way. Just curious

 

[Ruturaj]

I have 27.5, should fit fine I assume.

My road bike is a size 54 with a 55cm top tube, the cross is a 52 with 54.5cm top tube. There is room to spare so I would imagine a 56 could fit even with both wheels on, unless you have your seat post fairly high up then it might only go in with the front wheel off or seat post lowered.

When I went on test drives I took my bike (with a velosock cover) and before even sitting in the car I asked if I could try to fit my bike inside the back. Every dealership was happy to accommodate my goofy request. Help me narrow down my list very quickly.
